KEMCO's newest tactical RPG, Eldgear, plunges players into a world brimming with ancient technology and brewing conflict. Explore Argenia, a fantasy realm transitioning from medieval times to a magical age, where numerous nations vie for control of powerful ancient machines unearthed from forgotten ruins.
Eldgear's Story: A World on the Brink
Argenia, a land teeming with hundreds of nations in unexplored territories, finds itself embroiled in conflict as a new magical era dawns. The discovery of potent ancient technology fuels a desperate scramble for power. Following a devastating war, a fragile peace prevails, but the threat of renewed conflict remains palpable.
At the heart of the narrative lies Eldia, a global task force dedicated to preventing another catastrophic war. Their mission: research, monitor, and control access to these powerful ruins and their dangerous artifacts.
Strategic Turn-Based Combat
Eldgear features a straightforward turn-based combat system offering diverse strategic options. However, the game mechanics add a layer of complexity. The EMA (Embedding Abilities) and EXA (Expanding Abilities) systems are key to mastering combat.
EMA allows equipping three abilities per unit, usable at any time. These abilities range from stat boosts to tactical options like Stealth, enabling evasion or acting as a bodyguard. EXA, activated by maximizing Tension during battles, unleashes devastating special moves.
The enigmatic GEAR machines, sources of immense power, add another dimension to the gameplay. Some act as guardians, while others pose a formidable threat.
